Abstract: Metabolic disorders are biochemical and physiological abnormalities. It occurs when the breakdown of food into its components becomes disrupted. All the chemical processes continuously go inside the body allowing life and normal functioning. There are two categories of metabolism: catabolism and anabolism. Catabolism is the breakdown of organic matter, and anabolism uses energy to construct components of cells, such as proteins, carbohydrates and nucleic acids.
